UJI DIAMETER PULLEY PADA ALAT PENGIRIS PISANG MEKANIS
ABSTRACT: The manufacturing
process of agricultural produce into food stuffs is interesting to be known. In
fact many of agricultural crops
become more economics
after heaving additional
process. One of the manufacturing process is slicing. The aim of
this research was to test the distance of pulley diameter, conducted in
Februari 2012 to March
2012 at the
Laboratory of Agricultural
Engineering, Faculty of
Agriculture, North Sumatera University, Medan,
by literature study,
experiment, observation, and
testing of the
equipment. The parameters observed
were effective capacity,
percentage of material
left on the
equipment, percentage of material which is not grated.
The results of
the research showed
that the pulley
diameter had highly
significant effect on
capacity, percentage of material which is not grated and percentage of
material left on the equipment. The best pulley diameter was 8 inch.
